Why no option for 40,000? XBO is currently selling under 40,000 weekly, who's to say a Kinect-Free model will help sales at all?

I don't see a burst of sales during week 1, it's not like people were waiting on a Kinect-free model to buy an XB1 (Those people bought PS4's already). However when Halo 2 and Forza Horizon 2 release we will see bigger boosts now that there is a Kinect-free system.

voted 50,000 I think there will be a small boost, but nothing special. Maybe even just 45,000

You believe a $399 XB1 that was building pre-orders for about 4 weeks is going to sell less than 10k more units than XB1's lowest week? Think about that. 

What pre-orders? Is there a new game that's releasing at the same time of this bundle? Is ANYTHING releasing around the time of this console? So who's going to buy this during week 1?

It will boost sales, but we won't see a dramatic boost now. PS4 is going to continue to dominate XB1 until at least Destiny releases. Heck even WiiU should outsell XB1 for the next while.

Think about that.
